About This Teaching Activity ▼
This activity provides an update of current information on MR imaging in the assessment of musculoskeletal disorders. Essential anatomy, physiology and pathology are emphasized that explain imaging findings in disorders of the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand and fingers. MR imaging findings in the assessment of common problems in upper extremities are compared to those derived from other imaging methods.
Target Audience ▼
The target audience is practicing radiologists, orthopedic surgeons, rheumatologists, sports medicine physicians, and other physicians interested in musculoskeletal disorders.
Scientific Sponsor ▼
Educational Symposia (DocmedED)
Educational Objectives ▼
At the completion of this teaching activity, you should be able to:
- Assess MR images in patients with internal derangements of the upper extremity joints.
- Articulate the anatomic features fundamental to accurate interpretation of the MR imaging findings in these disorders.
- Formulate a reasonable differential diagnostic list and be able to identify the most likely diagnosis.
- Comprehend the pathogenesis and imaging findings associated with common and important disorders that affect the upper extremities.
